[edit] Reference URL help

I just added two references. I will come back to check the links and correct them when I have time between college classes. If anybody could look at my reference code and correct it so the site name displays instead of the url, yet have the link retain all information, it would be greatly appreciated.

And Someoneanother, Thanks for the extra references. Palehorse864 (talk) 08:34, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Hl2ctf-ctf atomicgarden-pro.png

Image:Hl2ctf-ctf atomicgarden-pro.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Cleanup

I've just tagged this article for clean up, there are several things I see wrong with it, most of it seems to be written like a game guide, which inappropriate. There is almost nothing about the history of the game, who created it? Valve? Is it an official mod or an unofficial one? There's basically nothing here someone unfamiliar with the subject would understand or want to know. No assertion of notability. Anyhoo, that's a start anyway. Rehevkor 03:38, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Plus it seems like it's a bad translation from a sketchy Japanese knockoff mod. A few pronouns and some punctuation wouldn't hurt here and there... Fultron89 (talk) 06:02, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] delete notfication???

provide a better reason then 'non notible mod'. The mod's devs actually faced off vs valve, i think thats pretty notible enough

i will edit this with history soon enough, but dont go on a deleting spree just becuase it makes you feel powerful. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Polygon (talk • contribs) 09:48, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Fair enough. I tagged for clean up over a month ago (see above) and since then nothing was done, I'll leave it a bit longer before I move onto an AfD. As is the article gives no indication of any sort of notability, as well as lacking basic information about the mod that someone who is unfamiliar with the subject would understand. Oh, and please check out Wikipedia's guidelines on civility, good faith and possibly the information on conflicts of interest. HAND Rehevkor (talk) 14:13, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Valve Match Information Added

I added information on the two official matches against Valve. For those of you curious, here is a video taken from the second matc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUeIo_80xbI It omits the first half of the match and begins when Valve employ their hacked code to take the lead. Here is an announcement for one of the matches. http://halflife2.filefront.com/news/Valve_Match_Slated_for_6pm_Central;24902

Here also is the official announcement of the match through Steam. http://www.steampowered.com/Steam/Marketing/January27.2006/ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Palehorse864 (talk • contribs) 08:38, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
